I've never had shark. It's on sale this week at Kroger so I thought
I'd get some.

What's it like? Mahi mahi?

Can I get some recipes?

It's firm...... very firm. It is quite edible, not bad at all.

Shark is a very meaty texture, firm, rather like swordfish. I love the texture.
The easiest way to prepare it is to combine a bit of mayo with some lemon juice and
brush thinly and evenly over shark steaks, then grill. The mayo keeps it moist, the
lemon adds a bright flavor. Salt & pepper as desired.
Another great way to prepare it is to cut it into chunks, toss with some good olive
or avocado oil (I use a blood orange avo oil), lots of fresh ground pepper, and
skewer with cherry tomatoes, then grill.

That sounds like the way my wife did it once. I made blackened shark once.
I had had it in a Cajun restaurant wand gave it a try at home.

With the very firm texture that would be a good way to do it.

Like Halibut. Dry and dense. Maybe you can stop cooking just short
of dry? Don't over cook. I tried but I couldn't. Taste was OK but
texture was dry and tough.

Shark is of no culinary importance, IMO.

'Flake' as it is known here, is great.

Dip in some beer batter and deep fry the fillets. Serve with chunky chips
and lemon wedges.

It's really delicious, and easy. Last time I added onions to the skewers, which was
delicious.

Another really good way to serve it is to cut it into 1" pieces, and sauté it in a
bit of olive oil or avo oil, then add diced tomatoes, minced garlic, fresh basil
(chiffonade), and a bit of lemon juice. Serve it with a side of angel hair.

You must be way overcooking your fish! Neither halibut or shark is dry unless
overcooked. ESPECIALLY halibut, which is a very moist fish when properly cooked.

It tastes like chicken, only without the flavor. :^)

Mmm shark. In NZ if you don't specify what kind of fish you want with
your fish'n'chips, you're likely to get a piece of battered, deep-fried
dogfish, which is a kind of shark.

It's so common that fish'n'chips has the nickname "shark'n'taties" in
some places.

In fact, my wesite, blinkynet.net was originally named dogfish. 🙂

What do you think of dogfish? The owner of the B&B where we stayed in
Victoria (Vancouver Island) didn't like it. Said it tastes "dirty".

A day's work for the chicken, a lifetime commitment for the pig.

Maybe he forgot to give it a bath?

I'm really quite fond of it. Hard to find it fresh, though, and I can't
eat it battered these days.
